    This course uses a Case-Study approach to teach statistical techniques with R: confidence intervals, hypotheses tests, regression, and anova. Also, it covers major statistical learning techniques for both supervised and unsupervised learning. Supervised learning topics cover regression and classification, and unsupervised learning topics cover clustering & principal component analysis. Prior basic statistic skills are needed.
